When I woke up in the morning, I suddenly remembered a scene in the movie, and my heart was still aching: the police cracked down on "generic drugs", brought those patients who bought "generic drugs" to the bureau, and asked them to report who was selling "generic drugs" "The culprit. They were all silent. The last aunt stood up and told the police that they had bankrupted the family to treat the disease, and the genuine drugs were so expensive that they couldn't afford them, so they could only buy cheap "generic drugs". But the "generic drugs" were hit again, which drove them to a dead end... Those patients wearing masks, their eyes were full of grief, the desire to survive and the reality of the attack made them Full of despair.
Yes. despair. I think I cry, but also for this sense of despair. When my father was hospitalized, I saw too many desperate patients and grieving families in the hospital. If there is even a little bit of hope, they can't wait to seize it, doing everything in their power. But sometimes this power is too weak, and in the face of the catastrophe of life, too many families are suffocated. Physical pain is of course tormenting, but when you know that there are medicines that can effectively relieve the disease, but because it is too expensive to afford, this mental blow is painful. Death is not equal, you have a chance to live, but you have no choice but to die in pain - it's cruel. But this happens every day in reality. When one person is sick, the whole family falls into it. There is a father in the movie who looks at the child's face, hoping to see him grow up, but he can't see it. I really can't bear to watch that scene, because of a person's illness, the family is ruined, there are too many such things.
Cheng Yong, played by Xu Zheng, opened a vent for these desperate people. He is not a saint, and his first thought was not to save people. What he wanted was to earn the difference between the real medicine and the "generic medicine". It is also his true nature as a businessman. Because this reselling of "generic drugs" is illegal after all. But later, he was "deeply caught in it". From the perspective of doing business, what he did was completely irrational and crazy. Not only did he not make money from selling medicine, but he had to pay for it himself, but he had already ignored it. . The turning point of this mental journey, I think the film is very well developed: in addition to his own temperament, the reality of the partners who worked with him, the gratitude and trust of many patients for him are also very important touches. He gradually realized that his actions unintentionally changed the fate of many people, so "unintentional" became "conscious", even if it was "illegal", he did not care. I respect such people from the bottom of my heart, and such people are rare.
To be honest, I didn't know this movie at all until I went to the cinema. A friend bought a ticket for me, and I followed along to see it. There weren't many people in the cinema, and everyone was leaning on their seats lazily. I think it won't be long before someone will take out their mobile phone and swipe it, and someone should eat popcorn, and couples will talk to each other... Let's see Movies have to endure these distractions. Seeing that the movie is related to "The God of Medicine", and thinking that Xu Zheng is the starring role, it is probably a relaxing entertainment film. But surprisingly, during the whole process of watching the movie, none of the disturbances I expected occurred. The auditorium fell into a silent atmosphere, everyone was focused, and there was one after another sobbing. I think no matter how the movie is made, it's more than half successful. It attracted the audience and immersed them in it. At the end of the movie, everyone did not panic, they all sat in their seats in a daze.
As for myself, I cried like everyone else. Of course, if a movie makes you cry, it must be good if you don't see it. For example, when I watched "Tangshan Earthquake" in the past, the earth shook, the house collapsed, and my relatives parted. I cried a lot, but the movie itself was not good. And "I'm not the God of Medicine", moved me, one is the story and the real case behind it, and the other is the way of presentation. Just like I liked "Dear" directed by Chen Kexin before, it faced the pain of real life and showed it to us in detail. This is rare in domestic films. We have seen a lot of light movies, they are bright and beautiful, the plot twists and turns, adding all kinds of exciting and provocative settings, and laughing after watching it, this is of course no problem. But I would rather have more works like "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and "Dear". We also need people like Cheng Yong.
